You can make the template object a class @@variable, instance @variable or a 
global $variable and then you have access to it, and the template#data 
method, or you can call template#resolve to use paths to get at your data.

Perhaps I can figure out how to call the eval in the context of the template 
itself so ${eval} always has access to @data.
